Hi,
I'm getting my wood floors refinished, I've had two guys come in for
estimates. Either way it will be around $1,000 for sanding and varnish. But
one guy said that Oil based is better (and cheaper) and the other said that
water based is better (and cheaper).
The price difference is minimal, I'm more interested in whichever finish is
more durable and long lasting.
Is there a definite answer?

Yes. The oil is much more durable.
